Press Release Body: Following the popularity of their original Grudge Match video on YouTube, MRT Performance and Whiteline have again come together, this time for the Power vs Handling Grudge Match between two Subaru MY08 STi's.
After achieving over 530,000 hits on video sharing site YouTube, MRT considered the first video a success. Aimed at both educating and entertaining, the first Grudge Match featured an MY06 Subaru Impreza WRX STi and a Mitsubishi Evo IX with the aim to see which particular car was faster with as similar an overall setup as possible.
"Seeing over half a million views for the original Grudge Match video on YouTube told me that everyone wanted to see this type of testing and get an up close view of what was going on both inside and outside the car." said Brett Middleton from MRT Performance.
Grudge Match 2 (The STi Grudge Match) compares two identical Subaru MY08 Impreza WRX Sti's with changes to power related parts in the MRT Performance car and suspension related parts on the Whiteline car.
This new video has now been released on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqG2bNknOo0) and will appeal to a wide audience from owners to enthusiasts and for Subaru devotees who want more than just a flashy video, a website has also been setup where you can get a behind the scenes look at the preparation and setup of both cars with exclusive video footage and interviews with Brett Middleton, Jim Gurieff and Wayne Boatright at http://www.STiGrudgeMatch.com
Members of the free Grudge Match VIP Club on the website will also be able to access a live teleseminar with both Brett Middleton from MRT and Jim Gurieff from Whiteline taking questions on specific aspects of each cars setup that will be held at the end of August 2008.
Brett Middleton from MRT Performance said "The STi Grudge Match video gives people a chance to see the effect of specific changes from both the power and the handling side in a visual way. However, with the website we are now able to support that knowledge even further by giving people additional information in the form of interviews and the actual test data so that it is as easy as possible for them to translate the results of our testing into similar performance from their own Subaru". The STi Grudge Match provided both MRT Performance and Whiteline the chance to setup and compare cars with similar budgets that have been spent in different ways and that are affordable to most Subaru owners.
